Actors and Scriptwriters Demand Fair Wages and AI Regulation Amid Industry Strikes

Studios have been scanning actors on set for some time, presumably to use their image later.

The strikes by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) have the film and television industry in the United States in check.

Actors and scriptwriters demand fairer wages, appropriate remuneration for streaming programs and a optimal regulation of the use of artificial intelligence that guarantees the continuity of their jobs, among other requests.

A common practice for many actors for years

The actress Rebecca Safier (Westworld, The Guild), has spoken with Daily Mail about how studios have long scanned actors on set to feed their image libraries.

One of the first statements by the SAG-AFTRA chief negotiator, Duncan Crabtree-Irelandwas that many studios were already scanning supporting actors to cover “background” roles with performances generated by artificial intelligence.

Faced with the prospect that studio practices end the work of thousands of actors, AI is one of the hotspots in the gap between the union and the producers.

The tug-of-war continues in the heart of Hollywood, with hundreds of its biggest stars picketing alongside the minds that craft the stories they play.
